Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.

The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:

  1. This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!

  4. Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.

  5. Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).

  6. Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

There's way too much bullshit flopping, but sometimes it's the only way to get the ref's attention when an opposing player makes a shitty move that doesn't hurt but is definitely against the rules.

Or sometimes they just never get touched but are magically thrown to the ground with a broken leg which also magically heals seconds later.

Maybe they should fix the way refereeing works then. It’s not like the rules were written by Jesus or something.

I see you've never heard of FIFA. Lucky bastard. I'm paraphrasing, but Sepp Blatter said something like "it's a human game, mistakes must happen"

Not to mention the utter hate from football fans of objective rule enforcement like VAR. Add them and you have a perfect storm of people not wanting to fix a problem blended with a governing body that is conservative to a fault.

I thought FIFA was for soccer, and the NFL handled football

One is for football, one is for American handegg
